The Big Chill

Why hello there. So guess what? I survived my first surgery. Crazy, huh? I guess 'em doctors do know a thing or two. Nothing to worry about. Just a little surgery-smergry. Thank you to every one for all the well wishes! I do have to say though a funny little thing happened during this past week of recovery. I did something I haven't done in a looooooong time.

I rested. No kidding, I slept like the dead!

It was foolish but I have to admit prior to surgery I pictured spending one day recovering in bed & the rest of the week off feverishly (but slowely & a little painfully) working away on shop orders, crafting, cleaning out closets, & yadda, yadda, yadda. After all when you have alot on your plate you have to make every free minute count, right? In reality, this is how my week went:

Get a glass of water. Take a nap.

Brush my teeth. Take a nap.

Walk down the stairs. Take a nap.

Pet the dog.Take a nap.

Pin a recipe. Take a nap.

Roll over in bed. Take a nap.

You get the point. I liked my naps this week. ALOT.

The hubby commented that perhaps my body needed the rest alot more than I realized.

Honestly, I couldn't agree more.

So with that being said instead of jumping right back into the hustle & bustle of things this week I am going to take another week off from the bloggity-blog & hold on to that inner stillness for just a little longer.

Hope you all have a delightful week & can't wait to catch up with all you lovelies!

glad to hear you are doing better!! and yup maybe your hubs is right, gotta listen to our hubs at times and realize that maybe they are right. i wish i could take a nap that frequently. but i wouldn't wish for surgery so that would happen. again glad you are back!!

GOOD FOR YOU!!! I'm so happy you're taking time off! I remember feeling that way after I took a very long Christmas vacation off of the old blog...I wanted to come back to the bloggy world just cause I missed all my friends, but it was so nice to just NOT have to worry about anything but relaxing. Take it easy and keep on nappin'!
